The Fresh Platform powered the Web site as the “showcase” for all the available mobile content. The custom developed design and functionality was the result of a collaboration of the UCLICK and Fresh teams, yielding a well organized storefront to browse and preview content available on mobile devices. Driven by the Fresh Mobile Platform, users are able to preview all of the content available for their mobile device in the web environment. Games and application include handset support details driven directly from the actual game builds present in system. After the user selects an item to buy, the user is presented with a simple buy page, where they enter their mobile number, which sends an SMS message to bring the user to the WAP Site to complete the transaction.
The WAP Storefront served several purposes; it provides a destination for the SMS messages initiated on the Web site, and it provides a robust mobile storefront experience allowing users to browse and buy content directly from the mobile site.
In addition, GoComics is best known for its highly sought-after catalog of comic books and daily comic strips. By incorporating these into the mobile site, End-users on the go can access their favorite titles in a mobile experience. Working with XML and API's provided by UCLICK, we are able to "pull" content on daily into the Fresh Platform, to be properly formatted and rendered for the mobile experience. The end result yields current comic books and strips.
